I've heard rumours that a few people are already dying to put up their Christmas decorations . . . I'm not that enthusiastic myself! However, with all the new goodies in the lovely Holiday Traditions Catalogue, I have been tempted to make a couple of special items that will make lovely gifts for some lucky family member.

At my Keepsakes Ornament class on Saturday, I managed to find time to make one at the same time as helping the ladies make their own.

This one's very sparkly with Champagne Shimmer Mist sprayed over the Elegant Eggplant stamped images, the silver Glimmer Paper, vintage faceted button and large half pearl.

I made a simpler version earlier in the day with traditional Real Red, and more lovely silver Shimmer paper.

Did you know when you buy the Ornament Keepsakes Stampset & Candlelight Christmas Designer Series Paper this month, Stampin' Up! are giving you a free set of "Festive" Paper Piercing Templates, which coordinate beautifully with the stamp set.

See more details in the post below from the start of this month.

Catch up with you again soon!

Boy was October a huge month of Stampin' Activity! Love it! How fast did that month go?

November is looking to be just as busy and full of activities, so I do hope I get to see some of you at one or more of the events I am running or attending!

To kick our month off, Stampin' Up! has announced this morning, TWO fabulous promotions for the month of November, and going into December - so excited about them!

Firstly there's the FREE Paper Piercing Pack when you purchase the Keepsakes Ornament and Candlelight Christmas Bundle - for those of you planning to attend my class next Saturday 10th, who haven't purchased the stamp set and framelits yet - doesn't this entice you just a little more?

What could be more INK-CREDIBLE than FREE Stampin' Up! Classic Ink pads - a whole family worth? Well, on top of our normal, very generous hostess benefits, Stampin' Up! are offering a whole colour family (that's TEN inkpads) to hostesses of qualifying parties, of $650.00.

I think that's awesome, and if my whole calendar doesn't fill up instantly for party dates between now and Dec 16th, I'll be hosting one of my own - as now we have the NEW format ink pads, I want them all!!

I do only have a few dates left though, so if you want free inkpads for yourself, please call or email me as soon as you can, so you don't miss out on being a hostess.

I can do some Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday workshops, daytime or after dinner, but I don't have a lot of dates left so get in early!
